Hello. I'm very upset about your latest updates. I understand that you care about security and increase the requirements for sites. But not in all cases it is convenient for users! Why autocomplete of login and password for sites without SSL doesn't work??? Because of this, I have serious difficulties at work and at home, because I do not remember logins and passwords and I have to constantly go into settings, look for saved logins and passwords there and enter them manually !!!

At work, various web services are used within our company, not all of them work on SSL. Logins and passwords I had previously been saved to them, but yesterday the autocomplete of the login and password stopped working. Previously, it worked, although it issued a warning that the site is unsafe, and now does not work at all.

You should add to about: config the ability to constantly use autocomplete logins and passwords without restrictions, even for http sites, even for https.
